[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this BzzAgent campaign - Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils!! My family and I all tried and everyone is in agreement. The grip on the bottom of the pencil is comfortable and does not make the pencil heavy. Comes with plenty of lead and eraser refills. The second pack that was sent to us will be going with my daughter to college where she can share this great product with others!

Mechanical Pencil Love

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so happy with my new Bic mechanical pencils. I work in a school district and go through may school supplies. I love the feel of the pencil in my hand. Very easy to use. And I even had to use the eraser and it erased my marks clearly. Great product and so happy to be able to share the coupons with my colleagues and students. Thanks BzzAgent!

Superior mechanical pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The timing for this Buzz Campaign could not have been more perfect. It's nearly time to go back to school for both my kids and myself. When I buy school supplies for my kids I want them to be of the best quality so they can get the most use out of them. I will admit, that I have had some not-so-good experiences with mechanical pencils in the past, so I was a bit skeptical going into this. Each package of Bic Velocity comes with 5 pencils as well as a container of replacement lead (BONUS!). The pencil felt great in my hand, thanks to the comfort of the rubber grip. I noticed right away that when I pushed the eraser end to extract the lead, that the metal tip also retracts. Nice! Just the right amount of lead came out. I used the pencil, initially to do a crossword puzzle. This is a great test, since I made many mistakes and had to use the eraser often. The eraser comes with a plastic cap. I guess this nice for presentation's sake, but I was left trying to find a place to stash the cap when not in use. The cap is not necessary in my opinion. That being said, the pencil was very easy to write with, so snags, skips or breaks. The eraser erased my mistakes beautifully and completely...no smears or smudges. I like the thought of using Bic Velocity mechanical pencils at home because my kids are rough on pencils and are constantly breaking the lead. Bic Velocity solves this issue with just a click of the eraser end. Bic Velocity will be our go-to pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils are awesome! I love how smooth they write and I love how it has the built in soft grip. The pencils write dark without having to put a lot of pressure and the erasers are fantastic! I like how each pencil also comes with a clear plastic cover for the erasers. It's a great mechanical pencil! I'm glad I had a chance to be a part of this campaign. Thanks BIC and BzzAgent!

Nice Smooth Lead and Fun Colors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils will be a nice addition to the kids' school bags this year, they have bright colored barrels that appeal to both boys and girls and dark lead that teachers appreciate! I do wish they had been 0.9mm lead instead of the 0.7. It makes them easier for students of all ages to use without risk of breaking.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter was extremely happy to try the new BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils. She loved the bright colors that were offered in each pack. She was glad that it came with extra lead and it was the first pack we've ever seen that offered extra erasers. They wrote smoothly and dark enough to where you don't have to break lead by pressing down hard enough. They erased fantastic. They didn't smear. She is overall so happy and found herself a new favorite Mechanical Pencil.

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are a big hit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The moment we recieved the Bzzkit with the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils both of my teens were all over them. The package was ripped opened the moment I got a picture of them. They have since been used non stop each day since we have had them, and school hasn't even started yet. My 14 year old daughter has been using them to make flash cards and taking notes for her Advanced English summer assignment. While my 13 year old son has been using them to work on improving his handwriting skills. He's been working hard all of his life in Occupational Therapy. These mechanical pencils have been a life saver for us. He is starting back up in therapy and has been using them to practice. He even wants to take them to show off at therapy. These would be an excellent tool in not only an educational environment, but also those used to help children learn the skills to succeed in improving their handwriting for school. The soft grips make them comfortable to hold, so my children enjoyoy using them. Not only that but they also love the darker lead, which makes their writing more crisp and clear, not worrying about sharpening a pencil over and over, the bright vibrant variety of colors, and the ease of refilling lead and erasers. That's how often they've been used so far. I definitely see these being used far into the future in our home. I believe they are an amazing learning tool for helping kids of all ages be more excited to write, and aide in creating that passion for writing as well! My husband and I have also tried them out for ourselves, and we are just as impressed as our children about how well they work compared to the average mechanical pencil.
